handsome she would ike 90 live in Balti-
more. Mr.. Samoht told me 10 tell the Ia
dies Of 81. Mays that he i married, but
has q son nearly grown. Mr.. Samoht was
born in Ireland and immigrated to Balti-
more about 20 years ago. He Is very much
like our own people, Of medium, neat stat
ure, except the most prominent man | ever
saw on the forehead, just between the eye
brows. lie said that was natural: that he
inherited his prominence from his mother;
that she was descendent OF the royal fam-
lily Of England, and al was made that way.
Mr.. Samoht said he had great desire TO
visit It May's county that he might take
in the beauties OF Steer Horn Neck and the
landing Il Milestone, that he supposes the
stones prevent the people there from get
ting their full growth and why - much Of
them i turned under for feet
We were at the sailing Of the Sue from

one Of 81 Inigo's prettiest daughters on her
way from Cape May To sojourn on the -.

Friday night We attended kernan's The
atre, and there met Messrs. Norman and
Douglass Carpenter, j. Frank Smith, A
Burroughs, John Carroll, John +. Ching
and George NJ. Shirburn. The two latter
were topics Of attraction and added much
10 the theatrical performance. Atthe close
Of the program, we passed over 10 the Au-
ditorium and whiled away our time till II.
On OCr way back 10 the hotel we met un-
Gle Math. walking with a policeman. Hell
10 We said, what is the trouble now: The
policeman said, DO you know this old man:
We answered, Why. yes; that's uncle
Math., aud you are carrying him away
from his hotel. The policeman then said,
he met the old man trying 70 find a certain
place; that he had mistaken him for
crank, and that he thought Of taking him
70 the station house. We then inquired of
uncle Math. To know why h. was out 50
late. lie said he had promised to call on
some lady friends that night and he must
do 80. We then insisted he should return
Ia the hotel with us. This he refused, by
saying he would carry out his promise
The policeman then said he should return
e. the hotel with us, that he was too old
and the hour too late 10 make calls. lie
reluctantly returned with us
People are laboring under the impression
that tobacco has greatly advanced. Such
il not the case. The most of our tobacco
suits the French market and Mr.. French
has no opposition for that grade, consc-
qucntly is buying about 80 per cent. less
per hundred than allowed 10 pay. The
bulk Of sales are from , to :. A fancy
brown, such Is we grow but little of, COM
mands the highest price, and is sold to

We find the factional men more quiet
here, and We would say 10 them, remcm-

Tragedy Arerted.

1t may not be generally known, but
there came near being a duel fought
here some time ago between one OF
Cleveland's house servants and a col
Ored gentleman of this city. 1t seems
that this Washington high kicker was
the proprietor of a sandy-cOlOred dude
who monkeys with the mail between
that city and Charlotte. He had
chewed hash here at boarding house
and never paid any attention to the
demands for pay till the proprietor
met him one day and gave him a few
solid kicks with No. II boot, where
it would do the most good. The young
dude then ran home to Washington
and told his daddy all about it. Then
the old mans blood ''riz." He wrote
a bloodthirsty letter to the proprietor
here and demanded satisfaction; ''sat-
isfaction. sir, or an abject 'depOlOgy,
sir. at any time and place you may
mention, sir. :"
Our Charlotte man was game to the
backbone, and said he wasn't afeard
of nuthin', and could whip the whole
family" He consulted his friends
here; two Of them offered their services
as seconds. and after long discussion
il was decided that as the Charlotte
man was the challenged party he had
the right to choose weapons aud the
place of meeting. This he did al
once. He chose for weapons two rocks
-one for each duelist-and they were
to stand two miles apart and throw al
each other.
When the Washington fellow saw
that the Charlotte mAn meant blood,
he hushed up his talk. and we all feel
better and breathe freer now that the
terrible tragedy has been happily ar
rested.
